Description

Design of broad-spectrum rabies virus-like particle antigen and stable expression cell strain HEK-293 thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of vaccines, and particularly relates to design of broad-spectrum rabies virus-like particles (RVLPs) antigen and screening and identification of a stable expression cell strain HEK-293 thereof.
Background
Rabies (Rabes) is an ancient and most easily overlooked human-animal co-disease, primarily triggered by the lethal pathogen Rabies Virus (Rabes Virus, RABV) (ZHao R Q, Shan Y, Li M H, et al. novel syndrome for Expression and Characterization of Rabes Viruses [ J ]. Protein Expression and Purification,2020,168:105567.Liu, ZHao W, W T, et al. Generation of Monoclonal Antibodies against Virus Variable Epitopes of the M Protein of Rabes Viruses [ J ]. Viruses,2019,11 (4)). Canines are the predominant host of RABV, and more than 99% of human Rabies is mediated by dogs (Navid M T, Li YY, Zhou M, et al. Complex of the Immunogenicity of the immunological conjugates of Two Inactivated microorganisms Viruses [ J ]. Archives of Virology,2016,161(10):2863-2870.), where RABV in saliva diffuses synaptically to peripheral nerves through the skin or mucosa at the wound and travels back to the Central Nervous System (CNS), replicates rapidly in the brain and causes brain damage with an apoptosis rate of almost 100% (Johnson N, Cunningham A F, photographs A R. factor to Viruses [ 21J.: 21, 23, 3906).
RABV is a strong neurotropic negative strand RNA virus belonging to the Rhabdoviridae (Rhabdoviridae family) RABV genus (Lyssavir gene). The genome of RABV (about 12 kb) consists of an unfragmented single-stranded negative-strand RNA encoding, in sequence, RVNP, RVPP, RVMP, RVGP, and RVLP 5 structural proteins (Navid M T, Li Y, Zhou M, et al. Complex of the oncogenesis of Two Inactivated Recombinant Viruses expressing the glycogene [ J ]. enzymes of Virology,2016,161(10):2863 and 2870.). RVGP is the only antigen exposed on the surface of the ravv that induces the body to produce Virus Neutralizing Antibodies (VNA). RVMP localizes Ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) to the plasma membrane and binds RVGP to budding RABV particles, participating in the overall process of budding, replication and bullet formation of RABV from the bud (Liu, Zhao W, He W T, et al. RVMP self-assembles with RVGP into Virus Like Particle (VLP) structures even in the absence of other components of the RABV.
Although rabies is a vaccine preventable disease, it still causes about 6 million deaths per year worldwide, with children accounting for 40-50% [5 ]. Due to the defects of the existing vaccine in the aspects of immune effect and the like, multiple times of administration are needed, and the cost benefit needs to be improved.
VLPs are Nanoparticles (NPs) formed by self-assembly of one or several structural proteins of a virus, without nucleic acids, similar in morphology and structure to the original virus. VLPs act as multiprotein supramolecular structures containing viral key antigens, displaying high density epitopes on their surface in a repetitive fashion, facilitating cross-linking of B-lymphocyte receptors (BCRs), and can induce a strong B-cell response (Rybicki E P. plant Molecular proofing of viruses-Like nanoparticules as Vaccines and Reagents [ J ]. Wiley Interdisc review-Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology,2020,12(2): E1587.). Furthermore, the particle structure of VLPs can facilitate the uptake of Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs), stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses (Ludwig C, Wagner R.Virus-Like Particles-Universal Molecular weights [ J ]. Current Opinion in Biotechnology,2007,18(6):537 545.).
Many studies have shown that RVGP expressed by yeast, insect and plant cells as antigen does not provide adequate protection (one H K, Tan W S, Ho K L. Virus Particles as a Platform for Cancer Vaccine Development [ J ]. PeerJ,2017,5: e4053.Zhang Y C, Zhou M, Li Y, et al.

Ext Review of variables, 2013,12(2):211 224.), apparently due to a different glycosylation structure than that of eukaryotic cells. Currently, much research is devoted to the production of VLP vaccines containing RVGP by infecting HEK-293 cells with viral vectors, which can protect mice from viral challenge and enable large-scale production. However, such vaccines may have infectious viral contamination with the vector.

The invention has the following beneficial effects:
antigen aspect: the invention assembles RVGP and RVMP from CSV strains to obtain RVLPs which are used as broad-spectrum antigens for preventing Chinese canine rabies. The results of bioinformatics software analysis show that the ectodomain of RVGP contains all antigen epitopes and 3 main N-glycosylation sites; mutations in the N-glycosylation site of the ectodomain result in loss of the RVGP spatial epitope and structural changes; the consistency of the candidate RVGP and the RVGP sequence of 34 strains derived from other regions in China reaches 97.25%, and the main antigen binding site and all glycosylation sites are highly conserved, which indicates that the selected RVGP can be used as the candidate antigen for the rabies in China.
Selection of cell lines: the invention obtains the positive monoclonal cell strain HEK-293/RVLPs which stably and efficiently express the RVLPs by screening by transfecting eukaryotic plasmids containing the RVGP and the RVMP to HEK-293 cells. WB and TEM results show that RVLPs can be detected in cells and in culture medium, and are separated by 20-40-60% sucrose density gradient centrifugation, the separated RVLPs are mainly positioned in 40-60% sucrose layers and are in atypical bullet-shaped forms, but are in circular or oval structures, and analysis is possible because natural RVLPs contain RNPs complexes besides RVMP and RVGP, and the RNPs are closely connected and play a certain supporting role in the RVLPs.
Therefore, the RVLPs constructed by the present invention lack other internal elements and have no supporting function, so that the RVLPs are morphologically different from natural RVLPs. The HEK-293 cell is used as an expression system, has a perfect PTM mechanism, and can ensure that the RVGP obtains a correct glycosylation structure, so that the immunogenicity of the RVGP is ensured. The constructed HEK-293/RVLPs stable cell strain lays a foundation for producing high-immunogenicity RVLPs.

Example 1 broad-spectrum rabies virus-like particle (RVLPs) antigen design
Sequence analysis of RVGP
The nucleotide sequences of the CSV strains RVGP and RVMP are obtained from NCBI database and are shown as SEQ ID NO.1 and SEQ ID NO.2 respectively. The sequence analysis and alignment results of the candidate RVGP are shown in figure 1.
The B cell epitopes (table 1), CLT cell epitopes and Th cell epitopes (table 2) of the resulting RVGP were all located in the ectodomain of mature RVGP as determined by bioinformatics software.

Prediction of RVGP glycosylation sites
The mature RVGP membrane ectodomain has 3 potential N-glycosylation sites (Asn37, Asn247, and Asn319), i.e., Asn56, Asn266, and Asn338 sites of the immature RVGP. N-glycosylation affects the antigenicity and correct folding of RVGP, and RVGP with the correct N-glycosylation structure can be produced by means of eukaryotic expression systems.
Candidate RVGP was analytically determined to have 4 possible N-glycosylation sites (Asn56, Asn266, Asn338 and Asn484) (figure 2). By integrating the predicted epitope together with the glycosylation site into the protein sequence of RVGP, it can be found that the ectodomain of RVGP contains all epitopes and that the first 3 of the predicted 4N-glycosylation sites are located in the ectodomain of RVGP (Asn56, Asn266 and Asn338) and the 4 th is located in the cytoplasmic tail of RVGP (Asn 484). Among them, Asn56 and Asn266 were contained in the B-cell epitope and Asn338 in the CTL epitope, indicating that the ectodomain is the critical region for RVGP to function as an antigen (fig. 3).
3. Effect of glycosylation sites on the antigenicity and spatial structure of RVGP
The correct glycosylation structure is crucial for RVGP to exert an immune function. When Asn56 mutated, the spatial B-cell epitope at that position was lost (fig. 4A), while the secondary structure at that position was mutated from a β -sheet to a coil (fig. 4B); whereas mutations in the glycosylation site had little effect on the linear epitope (FIG. 4A), the spatial structure of RVGP was not significantly altered when Asn266 and Asn338, which are located in linear B-cell and CTL epitopes, were mutated (FIG. 4B). The results show that the N-glycosylation sites influence the spatial structure and antigenicity of the RVGP, and the selection of an expression system capable of expressing the RVGP with the correct N-glycosylation structure plays a key role in the development of rabies vaccines.
RVGP amino acid sequence identity analysis
The sequence consistency of the RVGP sequences and the RVGP sequences of the CVS strains is analyzed by using DNAMAN software, the analysis result shows that the sequence consistency reaches 97.25 percent, and the key antigenic sites and glycosylation sites are highly conserved, which indicates that the RVGP of the CVS strains can be used as candidate antigens of the rabies vaccine in China (figure 5).
Example 2 construction of recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) -RVLPs-EGFP
The whole gene synthesized RVGP and RVMP were constructed into pcDNA3.1 (+). CMV, SV40PA and EGFP are amplified respectively by taking pcDNA3.1(+) as a template; then, overlapping and extending the target fragment (G) SV40PA-CMV and (M) SV40PA-CMV by using CMV and SV40PA as templates; finally, the target fragment (G) SV40PA-CMV-EGFP is amplified by overlap extension PCR by taking (G) SV40PA-CMV and EGFP as templates.
The electrophoresis result of the obtained target fragment is shown in FIG. 6, and is consistent with the actual size (CMV:618 bp; SV40 PA:122 bp; (G)/(M) SV40 PA-CMV:760 bp; EGFP:759 bp; (G) SV40 PA-CMV-EGFP:1484bp), which indicates the success of construction.
Example 3 construction of HEK-293 eukaryotic expression System
1. Eukaryotic expression system construction process
FIG. 7 shows the construction of pcDNA3.1(+) -RVLPs-EGFP and the process of obtaining HEK-293 cell lines stably expressing RVLPs, which is as follows:
1) transfecting a eukaryotic plasmid SV40PA-CMV-EGFP into HEK-293 cells, and culturing the cells for screening cell strains stably expressing RVLPs;
2) protein and mRNA levels of RVLPs were measured 48h after transfection by WB and qPCR;
3) adopting 2mg/mL G418 to screen HEK-293 cell strain stably expressing broad-spectrum rabies virus-like particle antigen, and realizing amplification and passage of positive clone strain after culture and enrichment;
4) digesting the positive monoclonal cell strain, detecting the proportion and the average fluorescence intensity of EGFP positive cells by using a flow method, detecting the expression condition of RVLPs by using WB, selecting the cell strain with the EGFP positive cell proportion of more than 99 percent as a candidate stable cell strain, optimally selecting the cell strain with the highest average fluorescence intensity and RVLPs expression quantity as the stable cell strain, and naming the cell strain as HEK-293/RVLPs;
5) subjecting HEK-293/RVLPs to subculture, digesting the 10 th generation cells, inoculating a part of HEK-293/RVLPs into a confocal culture dish for culture, fixing the HEK-293/RVLPs with 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature after 12h, staining nuclei for 10min with Hoechest 33342, washing with PBS, and observing the proportion of EGFP positive cells by using a laser confocal microscope; a part of cells are used for flow detection of EGFP positive cell proportion; inoculating a part of cells into a 24-well plate at different densities, and identifying the expression level of the target protein by WB; simultaneously collecting HEK-293/RVLPs cells for cell ultrathin section; collecting culture medium, extracting total cell protein of HEK-293/RVLPs, and performing sucrose density gradient centrifugation to realize identification and purification of RVLPs.
2. Detection of transfection efficiency of HEK-293 cells
The optimal transfection mode is confirmed by transfecting HEK-293 cells with pcDNA3.1(+) -RVLPs-EGFP by using PEI and liposome reagents respectively. 48h after transfection, the transfection was first qualitatively observed by inverted fluorescence microscopy (FIG. 8A), and then the transfection efficiency was quantitatively analyzed by FCM (FIG. 8B). The results show that the transfection efficiency of both reagents reaches more than 60%, when the DNA: PEI 1: 4, transfection efficiency was highest (65.7%), followed by liposomes (65.1%), and liposome cytotoxicity was less than PEI, so liposomes were used as transfection reagents to screen HEK-293 stable cell lines overexpressing RVLPs (figure 8).
3. Detection of RVLPs
Collecting HEK-293 cells and culture media transfected by pcDNA3.1(+) -RVLPs-EGFP for 48h, detecting the mRNA level of the RVLPs in the cells by utilizing qPCR, and detecting the protein level of the RVLPs in the cells and the culture media by utilizing WB, wherein the specific method comprises the following steps:

As can be seen from FIG. 9, the transcript levels of RVGP and RVMP were essentially identical, and both RVGP and RVMP proteins were detectable in HEK-293 cells and in the culture medium. Since the volume of the medium after the medium concentration was 100 times that of the cell lysis supernatant, it was revealed that the RVLPs assembled from RVGP and RVMP were mostly secreted into the medium.
4. Screening and identification of positive monoclonal cell strain HEK-293/RVLPs
MTT experimental results showed that the IC50 of G418 to HEK-293 cells was 2.235. + -. 0.206mg/mL (FIG. 10B). Therefore, 2mg/mL G418 was selected for the screening of HEK-293/RVLPs cell lines. After HEK-293 cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1(+) -RVLPs-EGFP for 48h, one group of cells was tested with FCM and the transfection efficiency was 65.66% (FIG. 10A). Another group of cells was continuously screened with DMEM medium containing 2mg/mL G418 for 14 days to enrich positive cells (FIG. 10C). Then, positive monoclonal cells were amplified in a 96-well plate by limiting dilution, and a cell line having an EGFP-positive cell ratio of more than 99% was selected by FCM and named HEK-293/RVLPs clone 1/2/4/5/8/10/11/12 (FIG. 11A). FCM and WB results showed that mean fluorescence intensity and protein expression levels of clone 11 were significantly higher than other positive monoclonal cell lines (P <0.05) (fig. 11B and C). Thus, clone 11 will be used in subsequent studies and will be named HEK-293/RVLPs.
5. Passage stability of HEK-293/RVLPs cell line
And transferring the obtained RVLPs high-efficiency expression cell strain HEK-293/RVLPs to the 10 th generation, digesting and inoculating the cell strain into a copolymerization focal culture dish, fixing by 4% paraformaldehyde, carrying out nuclear staining by using Hoecst 33342 dye, and carrying out CLSM observation and photographing. CLSM results showed that each cell expressed EGFP and was mainly localized to the cytoplasm (fig. 12A). FCM results showed that the proportion of EGFP-positive cells was 100% (fig. 12B). The remaining cells were cultured and inverted fluorescence microscopy showed no loss of green fluorescence in the cells, WB detected HEK-293/RVLPs cell protein expression levels at different confluency, indicating no decrease in RVLPs intracellular expression levels (FIG. 12C).
6. Characterization of RVLPs
Pancreatin digestion harvest HEK-293/RVLPs cells in T25 flasks were subjected to ultrathin cell sectioning as follows:
digesting and collecting cell sediment with the size of mung bean; washing with PBS for 3 times, and fixing with 2.5% paraformaldehyde at 4 deg.C overnight;
② the fixed cells are embedded in epoxy resin after dehydration treatment by ethanol solution with increasing concentration. Carrying out ultrathin cell slicing in a galvano-mirror chamber and fixing the ultrathin cell slice on a copper net;
③ after the negative staining of 1 percent phosphotungstic acid for 20 to 30s, observing the location of the RVLPs in the cells under a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) (with the voltage of 200 kV).
Meanwhile, TEM is used for observing the RVLPs purified by sucrose density gradient centrifugation, and the method is as follows:
harvesting and culturing HEK-293/RVLPs cell culture medium, filtering with 0.45 mu m filter membrane, concentrating with 30KDa ultrafiltration tube, and storing the concentrated supernatant at-80 ℃;
② extracting the total protein of the HEK-293/RVLPs cell;
thirdly, centrifuging the supernatant of the first step and the second step for 3 hours at 4 ℃ and 30000rpm, and dissolving the precipitate with PBS overnight at 4 ℃;
fourthly, preparing sucrose solutions with the concentration of 20 percent, 40 percent and 60 percent, and filtering the sucrose solutions by a filter membrane with the diameter of 0.45 mu m;
adding the sucrose solution into an ultracentrifuge tube in sequence from low to high to form a density gradient of 20-40-60%, adding the dissolved centrifugal product, and centrifuging at 35000rpm for 2h at 4 ℃;
sixthly, collecting white bands positioned between 40 percent and 60 percent of sucrose layers, centrifuging the white bands in PBS at 4 ℃ and 30000rpm for 3 hours for desugarization treatment, and dissolving the precipitate with PBS overnight at 4 ℃;
seventhly, the BCA kit is used for measuring the concentration of the RVLPs, and the RVLPs are stored at the temperature of minus 80 ℃ for later use;
allowing WB to identify RVLPs proteins among different sucrose layers;
ninthly, dropwise adding 10 mu L of the purified RVLPs sample on a copper net, standing for 15-20min, sucking residual liquid by using filter paper, negatively dyeing by 1% phosphotungstic acid for 20-30s, sucking off redundant liquid, standing until the copper net is dried, and observing the sample by using a TEM (voltage of 120 kV).
As shown in the left panel of 13A, RVLPs with the size of between 180-200nm are observed in the vesicle and outside the cell of the HEK-293/RVLPs, which indicates that the RVLPs can be secreted into the culture medium after being expressed; there are round or oval particles with sizes between 180-200nm (right in FIG. 13A). The RVLPs were predominantly in the 40% -60% sucrose layer after density gradient centrifugation (FIG. 13B), and the results of WB fully illustrate that the NPs observed were self-assembled from RVGP and RVMP into RVLPs (FIG. 13C). Although the self-assembled RVLPs have different sedimentation coefficients, most of the RVLPs are located in 40-60% of the sucrose layer, which indicates that most of the RVLPs are self-assembled according to the assembly proportion of the virus.
In conclusion, the RVLPs assembled by the CSV strains RVGP and RVMP are used as broad-spectrum antigens for preventing rabies of Chinese dogs. The results of bioinformatics software analysis show that the ectodomain of RVGP contains all antigen epitopes and 3 main N-glycosylation sites; secondly, mutations in the N-glycosylation site of the ectodomain lead to loss of the RVGP spatial epitope and structural changes; finally, the consistency of the candidate RVGP and the RVGP sequences of 34 RVGP strains from other regions in China reaches 97.25%, and the main antigen binding sites and all glycosylation sites are highly conserved, which indicates that the selected RVGP can be used as the candidate antigen for the rabies in China.
The invention obtains the positive monoclonal cell strain HEK-293/RVLPs which stably and efficiently express the RVLPs by screening by transfecting eukaryotic plasmids containing the RVGP and the RVMP to HEK-293 cells. WB and TEM results show that RVLPs can be detected in cells and in culture medium, and are separated by 20-40-60% sucrose density gradient centrifugation, the separated RVLPs are mainly positioned in 40-60% sucrose layer, are in atypical bullet-shaped forms and are in circular or oval structures, and the analysis is probably because the natural RVLPs also contain RNPs complexes inside in addition to RVMP and RVGP, and the RNPs are tightly connected and play a certain supporting role inside the RVLPs. The RVLPs constructed in the research lack other internal elements and have no supporting effect, so the RVLPs are morphologically different from natural RVLPs.
The HEK-293 cell is used as an expression system, has a perfect PTM mechanism, and can ensure that the RVGP obtains a correct glycosylation structure, so that the immunogenicity of the RVGP is ensured. To potentiate the immune effects of RVLPs, this chapter also constructs and expresses mucosal immune adjuvant LTB, which is able to bind to the GMI receptors on most cell surfaces, enhancing the humoral, cellular and mucosal immune responses of oral RVLPs. In a word, the HEK-293/RVLPs stable cell strain established by the method lays a foundation for producing high-immunogenicity RVLPs, and the immunogenicity of the RVLPs is further enhanced by using a mucosal adjuvant.
